Harvest

RaccoltaSono i momenti più cruciali ed intensi di tutto l’arco produttivo, un cerchio lungo dodici mesi. L’approssimarsi del periodo ottimale della raccolta, che può variare di anno in anno per ogni cultivar, coincide con innumerevoli visite in campo, per valutare il livello di maturazione nei differenti appezzamenti con campionamenti e valutazioni delle condizioni delle olive, che si protraggono per tutta l’estate e l’inizio dell’autunno. Ogni cultivar viene raccolta separatamente ed al grado di maturazione ottimale. Raccogliamo a mano ma, a seconda delle cultivar o delle condizioni esterne, anche con agevolatori elettrici o scuotitori. Le olive raccolte vengono poste all’interno di cassette areate da 15 kg per essere immediatamente trasportate nel nostro frantoio, ad esclusivo uso aziendale, situato nelle vicinanze dei nostri uliveti.
Milling

SpremituraEntro poche ore dall’arrivo in frantoio, le olive vengono selezionate, lavate e frante. Il nostro impianto è dotato di due differenti tipologie di frangitura, controlli automatici in tutte le fasi del processo e gramole chiuse ermeticamente, per evitare ossidazioni della pasta e preservare il carico di sostanze antiossidanti naturalmente contenuto nelle olive. Tutte le superfici a contatto, dall’inizio alla fine del processo, sono di acciaio inox, per garantire la massima pulizia ed igienizzazione. Le temperature di gramolazione sono controllate con un sistema di termoregolazione automatico. L’estrazione avviene con un decanter a risparmio d’acqua così da non dilavare la frazione polifenolica contenuta nella pasta. La separazione finale permette di allontanare le micro particelle di acqua e solidi dall’olio, in modo da ottenere un prodotto finale pulito e privo di impurità. Successivamente l’olio viene filtrato, per l’eliminazione di eventuali ulteriori micro particelle acquose. Nasce così, solo con procedimenti meccanici, l’olio extravergine di oliva biologico Tenute Librandi.

carolea
This is a cultivar with a luxuriant bearing which finds its ideal environment in our Franco-clayish hills. If cured and irrigated, it guarantees a constant production of fruits with a large elliptical shape with a flat base and a more rounded and characteristic apex. The oil obtained is a light fruity with an unparalleled delicacy.

frantoio
Originally from central Italy, but later spread all over the world, it has found a perfect hospitality in our high-altitude plots where the summer ventilation keeps the humidity away and is our best friend for ensuring the quality of the fruit. The fruits of this cultivar are medium-small with a medium oil content. The extra virgin olive oil that is extracted from it, with an intense fruity flavour, has an astonishing and unexpected character.

nocellara
Thanks to the particular microclimate that characterises our area, it gives us a unique product, made so by the terroir of a particular plot; a patch of earth where this spherical olive, covered in small "freckles", has a yield which is very low, but of excellent quality, with a medium-intense fruity oil with complex and enveloping aromas.
